"A Lenten Musical Offering"

Dear Gentle Readers:

I will be a part of a piano-vocal concert with Anita McNew, Music Director of Christ United Methodist Church, on Sunday, February 21, 2010, at 6:00 p.m. We will each be presenting 4-5 pieces that are of a contemplative and introspective nature as we enter the season of Lent.

A couple of my selections will include Pachelbel’s “Canon in D”, the first movement of Beethoven’s “Moonlight” sonata, and an assortment of hymns entitled “Cornerstone Medley”. A sampling of Anita’s performance includes Schubert’s “Ave Maria” as well the hauntingly beautiful “Via Dolorosa”.

We cordially invite you to attend this concert as you prepare your heart for the upcoming Holy Season.

The concert is free and open to the public, and a reception immediately follows. The church is located at 3301 Sycamore School Road, near the intersection of McCart and Sycamore School Road – just across the street from Rosa ’s and Wal-Mart. The phone number is 817.346.2400. Additionally, please visit our website at http://www.cumcfw.com.

If you are unable to attend and would enjoy having a CD of the concert, they will be available in a week or two after the concert. The suggested donation for the CD is $10.00. All proceeds will benefit the Chancel Choir of CUMC.

We hope to see you Sunday evening.

Blessings,Belinda Scholl

About Me

By profession, I am a librarian and musician. I hold a Bachelor of Music in piano performance from Southwestern University (Georgetown, TX); a Master of Music in Piano Pedagogy from Texas Christian University (Fort Worth, TX); and a Master of Science in Library & Information Sciences from University of North Texas (Denton, TX). I am fortunate to earn my living while working in my two chosen fields. I am a librarian for a private Christian school in Fort Worth, and serve as an accompanist for a Methodist church in southwest Fort Worth where I also maintain a small, but select piano studio and live with my beloved Chihuahuas, Domino and Lady. On March 15, 2010, during my Spring Break, I married my high school sweetheart, with whom I reconnected during the 2009 holidays -- thanks to the Internet! After over 36 years, we've found our love once again! "First love, second chance" definitely describes us!!!
On March 31, Teddy and I welcomed into our home another Chihuahua! Lady is a 2 year-old, short-haired, fawn colored, female Chi. Thus far she is living up to her name and is a sweet Little Lady.
Our family is now complete!!!
